Just picked up a new slave cylinder for my '92 Pickup, got it from Napa, and when I got home and opened the box I saw that the rod/shaft that pushes the clutch fork out, was not attached to the cylinder, it was loose in the bag and so was the dust boot.

I assume I have to just stick this in the cylinder and slide the dust boot on, right? The rod had a notch on one end and not on the other. Which end goes into the cylinder and which end sticks out to contact the clutch fork?

Could have swore the last time I bought a slave cyl, it came complete.


Thanks.

If the shaft has a rounded end that will probably be the one that touches the fork. Usually the actual piston is integral with the cylinder and the shaft simply rides between the two (as it is in this case) which allows it to move laterally without loading the piston laterally.

So yes, just put it together the way you are thinking.
